  1. I used NAPA'S Decal spray remover, very succesdsfully on my last Eliminator. Now I need another one to finish the can. :popcorn:
  2. my '90 eliminator is about to go 205k. :brows:
  3. Well, it looks like I hav a leaking tank. Had more than 3/4 when I brought it home, but now only less tahn 1/4. I can see where it's leaking onto the concrete, and .oh well it's not good. My ? is: 1.can I go to a tank refurbishing place(similar to radiator shop)? or Maybe just go to a Jyard (prices?) 2.Are there different sizes of tanks? My eliminator is a 4.0, 5spd, shortbed. 3.Guess I should replace the filter and sending unit also?? 4.Any tips before I start?? 5. Anyone have a replacement near Charlotte?? :eek: Thanks
  4. Thanks for the offer, but I realize you have other priorities. If I don't remember this; thanks for the sacrifice you're making, and I pray that the conflict over there comes to a quick end. Be Safe :USAflag: Tom
  5. I'm trying to prioritize what to do next on my 90 Eliminator. I think addressing the rust around the rear wheels, and other places is first. But need some help with either someone that does welding or good with the POR-15. Maybe even a side job with a body repair/paint. May do some light trails over at Uwharrie, but mostly used around town. Let me know. I can work deals on some tires or :cheers: . And I could help someone who knows what they're doing. Thanks
  6. Received sticker and magnets over the weekend 8) . Need to wait to install them, because I need to decide if I'll run with or without the cap. Thanks
  7. Thanks guys for the info and pics :cheers: . Guess I'll have to just deal with it after I look how bad it is after removing the flares.
  8. Thanks for the pics. if I get a welder, I'll refer to them. I'm looking along the lines of that POR15, bondo I guess. :D
  9. let's try this...........
  10. :eek: :D oops, forgot to post pics.......... and how do I do that?? What pics server can I use?? Thanks
  11. :eek: Please help me with this. Both sides are like this, and if there wasn't any paint, there'd be no side!!!!! I see everyone praising this POR-15. Should I use it here?? I guess my first step is to remove flares, then cut out rust, then reinforce from backside, then ???? Thanks :cheers:
  12. John Q, That's a great pic of the kid. Oh to be that young again, and not have any problrems to worry about... :D
  13. I hope you're not speaking from experience.... :nuts:
  14. :mad: So, what I need to do is remove any of the trapped New England guck on the inner ledge, and let it drry, then put the 15 on from the inside?? Or scan I just spread it on from the outside?? Also, is it sandable like Fiberglass? Thanks
  15. Should have my MJ by end of week, and know there are rust issues above rear wheel wells. never used POR-15 before, but I see lots of comments on it. My rustout is mostly surface, but knowing my luck will wind up all the way thru. Do I need to wire brush the rust, and support it from underneath, then brush on the 15 from outside?? Comments/suggestions are appreciated. :brows:
  16. It's great that you took pics of the transformation. along the way. I'm picking up a 90 Eliminator with same specs as what you started with. But I know I won't take it to your extreme, but you've given me some ideas... what it would look like in various stages. Thanks :cheers: SLAINTE
  17. Good job at recycling. Wish I had one around Charlotte for the yearly power outages..... :cheers:
  18. Maybe I misread the post, but I want to give my .02 worth on this: Guys, it's important that your SPARE tires are the same Overall Diameter as the ones you're running. If you do get a flat and use a tire with a smaller O.D. say goodbye to the gears :popcorn:
  19. Just went back into the archives and found Rob's scan on "History of the Comanche". In it there was info on trim differences. Thanks :D
  20. Guys (and any women on these pages), What are the differences between the Comanche Eliminator and Sportruck packages?? (Inquiriing minds want to know). Slainte' :cheers:
  21. I feel so safe with the SPAM POLICE on duty. I saw one on the Yahoo Comanche ring yesterday also. Something about new jobs... Thanks anyway for keeping us clean. :popcorn:
  22. :oops: Another newbie question, but here goes: Is there a link for the procedure on removing and repairing typical MJ rust around the wheels on the bed?? Do I just take a rotozip and cut the metal, then weld some piece into it?? Where do I get a replacemnt wheel well? Thanks
  23. bEEN WATCHING THE SITE, AND HAVE A QUESTION: What is RENIX?? anything to do with RENAULT? tHANKS
  24. a newbie asks: what is it, and what's it for?? :oops:
  25. took me awhile to click on that. guess the DMV didn't realise it also. :bowdown:
